- About the Mobile Application Screens
  The mRounds application consists of five screens, each designed to help you efficiently manage rounds, execute rounds, create issues and actions, and update user preferences. Below is a detailed overview of each screen.
- Review and Accept the Shift Handover Report
  Before you begin Round Tasks execution, review and acknowledge the shift handover report, summarizing the tasks completed, outstanding tasks, and any unresolved issues as part of the process. For more information about the Shift Handover Report, see topics/mrounds_shift_handover_report.html.
- Access Rounds in Offline Mode
  mRounds mobile application is designed to work seamlessly even under low or no internet connectivity.
- Self Assign and Unassign Rounds
  This section explains how to self-assign rounds, unassign rounds, and create ad-hoc rounds.
  - Assign Open / Unassigned Rounds to Yourself
    If no rounds are assigned to you, you can self-assign open or unassigned rounds.
  - Create Ad-Hoc Rounds
    Creating ad hoc rounds allows you to initiate unplanned inspections or tasks without needing a pre-configured round from the supervisor. This feature is particularly useful for urgent maintenance tasks, unexpected issues, or quick checkups that are not part of the scheduled rounds.
  - Unassign Assigned Rounds
    You can remove an assigned round to free it up for reassignment, allowing for flexibility in scheduling maintenance adjustments.
  - Unassign In Progress Rounds
    If unable to work on assigned rounds, you have the option to un-assign them, allowing other operators to take over and complete the rounds.
- Execute Rounds and Record Asset Data
  This section explains how to use the mRounds mobile application for inspecting assets and recording data.
- Create and Manage Issues
  Effective issue management is critical for maintaining operational efficiency and ensuring that equipment issues are addressed promptly. You can create, assign, resolve and close issues for anomalies identified during rounds to ensure proper tracking and resolution.
- Create and Manage Actions
  Managing actions is crucial for addressing critical tasks identified during rounds. Create an action to follow up on an issue that is marked resolved and close it once you review and gather the required information.
- Log Shift Activities
  Shift logs are essential for recording key activities and events that occur during a shift. They document actions taken, issues encountered, and the status of tasks, keeping both you and your supervisors informed about ongoing operations.
- Find and Manage Rounds, Issues, and Actions
  Search and filters help you to find the relevant rounds, issues, and actions quickly based on criteria such as status, priority, date, or assigned personnel. These tools allow you to streamline task management, ensuring nothing is overlooked or delayed.
- Customize User Settings
  The User Profile allows you to manage personal and account-related information, reset the application to change domains, manually re-sync data with cache clearing, and update key operational details such as plant, unit, position, and shift. Customizing profile ensures information is up-to-date and tailored to enhance user experience.

Create Ad-Hoc Rounds

Creating ad hoc rounds allows you to initiate unplanned inspections or tasks without needing a pre-configured round from the supervisor. This feature is particularly useful for urgent maintenance tasks, unexpected issues, or quick checkups that are not part of the scheduled rounds.

To generate an ad-hoc round from the mobile app:

Tap the Open Rounds tab.

Figure 1. Round Plans Section
Tap on the Round Plans section.
Choose the pre-defined round plan from the options for the plant.

For example, if you find an issue with pressure value, this Rounds Plans section will have a ready or pre-defined round plan template with Pressure Value tasks. Choose that plan.

Figure 2. Select Rounds
Tap the Add to My Rounds button.

The round is added to the My Rounds tab with Assigned status. You can execute it like a regular round plan.

Rounds generated from the mobile app are visible in the web app in the Rounds tab of the Scheduler screen.
